Liz Murphy at 2015 Home Care Update: Town Hall Forum

The last few years have brought sweeping changes to the home care industry in California. Providers are struggling to adapt and comply with the litany of industry-specific new laws and regulations. Issues on the horizon in 2015 include loss of sleep time exemption, overlapping state and federal overtime regulations, implementation of AB 1217 licensure, mandatory sick pay, local minimum wage pay increases and labor unions. The future of home health care was discussed by home health care expert and Manning & Kass Los Angeles partner Liz Murphy along with a panel of home care executives in a town hall style meeting sponsored by the Southern California Chapter of the Home Care Association of America (HCAOA) on Tuesday, March 3, at the Doubletree Hotel in Orange, CA.
